Liberal Scientists Plan March on Washington to Defend Global Warming

Rumor has it that instead of vagina hats, they’ll wear test tube hats.

Sure, this is how science works! Instead of the free exchange of ideas and reliance on inductive reasoning to develop hypotheses, scientists spend their time ferreting out immutable “facts” and, once having done so, close off all future discussion. Empiricism? Who needs it.

According to the March for Science website, the impetus for the demonstration (apart from the success of the “March for Women”) is the “mischaracterization of science as a partisan issue” and, one assumes, efforts to set the public straight. And who, according to a CBC interview with march founder Valorie Aquino is the chief political villain in this drama? Why, Donald Trump, of course. Apparently, Aquino — who is working toward a PhD in anthropology — slept through Barack Obama’s repeated insistences that the “debate is over” and “the science is settled.”
